Are you well versed with cad? I'm not a slouch when it comes to learning new software and I've dipped by toes into blender but when it comes to cad, I'm a complete newb and will be starting from scratch with freecad. Unless there's a better solution out there. I've seen tinker but I like my data and really don't want to hand over my personal usage and work to autodesk.
Freecad is a bitch to learn... it has many quirks. But once you get over the learning curve it is very capable. TInkercad is super easy to learn, but yeah... autodesk owns you. You can export your designs in several formats though. Tinkercad is great for getting going.
